Program Recognition
•The department describes the minor as training students in technique, choreography, movement mechanics, nutrition, and humanities together, treating dance as a complete art form rather than technique alone (source: minors/dance/index.html)
Training
•The 18-credit minor centers on MUS 312 (Choreography and Composition), one Movement/Repertoire/Composition course such as Dance Conditioning or Theatre Dance I/II, and five one-credit Dance Technique courses spanning Ballet, Tap, Modern, and Jazz levels, with at least two technique courses required from the same style (source: minors/dance/index.html)
•The minor also requires two Mechanics and Understanding courses — DR 102 Introduction to the Alexander Technique and NURS 257 Nutrition and Health — plus one additional elective outside the student's major, chosen from options spanning art history, philosophy of art, and the physics of sound and light (source: minors/dance/index.html)
